- BATSMENRBM4s6sSR12.4 QDK walks after an appeal that is turned down by the on-field umpire! It was a length ball outside off and de Kock tried to cut it off the backfoot behind point again but got a feather on it. The appeal was enthusiastic but was turned down. QDK walked before thoughts of the review coming in. 98/22.5 Edged and taken! A length ball on middle has KL searching for it on the backfoot, he tries to defend it with a slightly open-faced bat. It looked like the wobble ball, it ended up taking the outside edge and went straight to the keeper who took it comfortably. 13/113.3 Direct hit at the non-striker's end! This might be out! Yes, Hooda is a goner! It was a short ball on the body that was pulled to deep square leg, Jonny ran in to the ball and, somehow, got a direct hit from the deep. The batter was a few inches short for the freak runout to be completed. Hooda was slow while turning which looked lazy but the bullet throw was accurate and took away any chance of Hooda coming back. 104/314.1 Holes out to long-on! Cross seamer at a back of a good length outside off was going away with the angle, Pandya tried to drag it aerially over long-on but the bat turned in his hand and the ball ballooned up in the air. Dhawan took a comfortable catch with the hands pointing upwards 105/415.3 Slapped off the bottom of the bat to the bowler! Stoinis was making room and tries to slap the back of a good length ball that was spinning away towards the stumps, toe-edged it and the ball went slowly. That allowed time for Chahar to leap to his left and clasp it. 111/614.5 Skier taken brillianty by Liam! Another cross seamer on a good length on off, Badoni tried the whippy flick but got the top-edge. The ball went straight up, three fielders close by were converging, but Liam called it and took it with a forward lean as he came down. 109/517.4 Taken by the deep-cover fielder at wide-long off! Full, slow ball outside off takes the top-edge off the swipe by Holder. It went up in the air and long-off and deep-cover were running towards it, the latter called early and took it well, to his right 126/718.3 Taken by deep-cover who ran in and held on to it with a slide! Chameera tried to go through with a straight swing but got it off the bottom of the outside half of the bat, it went up and Chahar ran in from deep cover and took it well 144/8Extras12 (lb 8, w 4)TOTAL153/8 (20 Overs, RR: 7.65)Did not bat: Ravi BishnoiFall of wickets: 1-13 (KL Rahul, 2.5 ov), 2-98 (Quinton de Kock, 12.4 ov), 3-104 (Deepak Hooda, 13.3 ov), 4-105 (Krunal Pandya, 14.1 ov), 5-109 (Ayush Badoni, 14.5 ov), 6-111 (Marcus Stoinis, 15.3 ov), 7-126 (Jason Holder, 17.4 ov), 8-144 (Dushmantha Chameera, 18.3 ov)

- BATSMENRBM4s6sSR4.4 in the slot on middle stump, Mayank backs away looking to flay this 143 kph delivery over mid-off, he middles this drive but doesn't quite get the desired elevation. KL Rahul shuffles left and puts in a supremely athletic catch with a bunny hop reaching above his head going left to snaffle it. 35/16.3 hmmm.... not a shot Shikhar will be posting on his Instagram stories later tonight... Bishnoi floats this very full, almost yorker length on middle stump. Way too full for Shikhar's attempted sweep shot, plays over the top of this and is bowled. 46/215.2 full and wide at 141 kph, slashes this to Krunal at deep third man where a very sharp catch is taken lunging forward! This didn't get more than 20 feet off the ground, it was screaming flat and fast. Usually a team's weakest catching fielders are at fine leg and third man but Krunal judges this like an elite fielder and has soft enough hands on his lunge forward from five yards off the rope to ensure he holds on with ease at knee height. It might not look like a great catch but that's only because he made it look so easy and casual but it was a superb technical display from Krunal. 103/67.6 Rajapaksa got away with a close shave on the previous ball but not this time! Back of a length on fourth stump, tries to casually flick this across the line into midwicket but it keeps skidding straight rather than turning into the body. A leading edge balloons over cover and KL Rahul charges in 20 yards from backward point to take this in stride at rib height reaching well in front of his body. Just got there in time to not have to get his uniform dirty with a dive. 58/312.1 Livingstone trades power for finesse and pays the price! Shuffles across his stumps looking for a cute flick over the keeper and fine leg. He gets all the way across almost onto the wide guideline trying to flick this slower ball off a good length on eighth stump, the timing is off and a healthy but gentle connection off the open face of the bat goes through to de Kock at thigh height. 88/413.2 arm ball skids onto middle stump as Sharma prods forward. Was it pad first or bat first? Big lbw shout denied as there's a double noise. LSG finally go for the review. Definitely pad first on the replays. Sharma is in trouble. Ball-tracking sure enough shows three reds. Decision overturned. 92/517.2 short and wide, slaps this high toward the cover sweeper. It floats gently toward Badoni who settles 10 yards in from the rope and takes a casual catch at chest height swiveling his hips sideways to take it with palms facing into the torso. 112/717.6 slower ball at 127 kph on middle, clears the front leg to heave but top edges this to deep midwicket. Badoni remains on that side of the ground for the right-handers and runs in 15 yards before tumbling to his left for another sharp catch, holding on while falling to the turf. 117/8Extras15 (b 4, lb 2, nb 1, w 8)TOTAL133/8 (20 Overs, RR: 6.65)Did not bat: Sandeep SharmaFall of wickets: 1-35 (Mayank Agarawal, 4.4 ov), 2-46 (Shikhar Dhawan, 6.3 ov), 3-58 (Bhanuka Rajapaksa, 7.6 ov), 4-88 (Liam Livingstone, 12.1 ov), 5-92 (Jitesh Sharma, 13.2 ov), 6-103 (Jonny Bairstow, 15.2 ov), 7-112 (Kagiso Rabada, 17.2 ov), 8-117 (Rahul Chahar, 17.6 ov)
